Fiberglass, has some nics in it which you can kinda see in the pics, but tis actually very strong lip and backed with the bumper it holds up well. I didn't know it was fiberglass when I got the kit but imo its the nicest of the all. Not a big fan of the 5 axis lip kit plus a lot of our cars have them. Not many have this kit.

225/45/18 front on a 8.5" rim with 245/45/18 on 9.5 rear. I am close to needing new tires and I will be going to a 235 or a 245/40 for the rear and depending on what I can find 215/45 front or 225/45 front. I am getting a set of TRD BBK so I am gunna have to run all seasons on these big wheels lol.

I have stock steelies with good snow tires on and also stock 16" upgraded scion wheels for sale if anyone wants them

Oops edit: I am on Scionpro D2BD coilovers

If you want to be able to dump it real low & tuck with the coilovers, I recommend 215/40-18 tires for the front and 235/40-18 for the rears. If you want more meat, less stretch, and a just a little less low, then go with 225/40 up front and 245/40 out back.

Lookin' real nice Kyle.

Looking good, you got some pics up quick. I don't think I took any pictures of my car when I had the coilovers.

You can fit the TRD bkk no problems with 18's unless you got some insane concave style wheels.

Are you sure? I've seen pics of the trd BBK with the trd 19" wheels and there was just enough space between the caliper and wheel.

Not positive because I don't run them personally but I have seen pictures on here with people who have them and 18 " rims.

I don't know, my index finger will fit between up to my first knuckle (near 1/2"). It would really depend on what 18 you're looking at.
